Remote Web Access help needed please

[Terminel]

Hi all,

Some help before I tear my hair out will be greatly appreciated.

I have got a new HP Microserver running WHS 2011 and I have been trying to get the Remote Web Access up and running, everything else is going well.

The problem is that when running the auto setup within WHS 2011 it says that upnp is not turned on (it is) and that the router is not working. Having read countless threads on sky user and elsewhere I have not made any progress to solve the issue.

I have port forwarded 80, 443 and 4125 in the router settings for both inbound and outbound plus the same within the WHS 2011 firewall application.

When I ping the ports using shieldsup 80 is open, 443 and 4125 are stealthed and when using canyouseeme 80 is fine but 443 and 4125 the connection times out.

When I try to access xxxxxxxx.homeserver.com the connection times out wether I am on my LAN or on a separate Internet connection.

What is going on?

I have the sagem 2504 (grey dimpled router) and the server is connected via a wired connection. It has a static ip address assigned via the router settings as well as most of the other it devices in my house.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

You should only need to forward port 443. Im not familliar with the sagem, does it have any preset aplications in the port forwarding/virtual server options. The HTTPS aplication preset on my billion was what mine work all of a sudden. But yeah as far as I'm aware you should only need 443 mines allowing both TCP & UDP.

Thanks for the advice but I seem to have solved it by putting the server ip into the DMZ on the router settings.

4125 remains stealthed but 80 and 443 are open.
